romney's mouth. i would like to say an answer to that after you answer me. >> caller: okay. i got to tell you, people who worked on the obama campaign were not happy by president's performance. it wasn't as if it was a grand strategic act on his part. that he would, you know, act so disdebs look down a lot, not challenge romney either directly or indirectly. sufficiently on some of these big issues, and in a lackluster fashion. were on the conference call trying to figure out, okay, how do we make the best out of the situation. and it may be the president will do that. in mix i say you can -- it's difficult to extrapolate any given point. that moment, that night, i don't it was a good night for the president. i think it was a good night for mitt romney. i think he came across with force. i think the focus groups show that the impact was in his favor but not as much as the pundit on the cable tv and the news shows said it was. all that said, you know, the first debate won't be as important as the seco

[laughter] >> is that -- >> as long as you don't resign from it, bill. we still want you. >> is that sustainable? if majority of jews favor democrats on reproductive choice, immigration, energy security, what can republicans offer to turn them in a different direction, bill? >> look, i mean, there's no -- this is not about talk and magic words. people aren't stupid. people have to make up their minds whether these policies work. has president obama advanced a responsible agenda? has he put his political capital on the line as president bush and senator mccain did in 2006 and 2007? it's
